Gross proceeds paid to an attorney

[ILLMAS]

I have TP that is an attorney he settled a case for his client and he recieved a 1099 MISC, box 14 has the amount. How do I report this amount, somehow it's not following to schedule C, from the settlement he recieved, he paid out almost half to his client. I searched the IRS, but there is no real explanation on how to report.

Thanks

On the ATX 1099MISC input form you select from a drop down tab for the amount to flow to Sch-C.

and remember, you will need to report the entire 1099 to him and then show the client paid portion separately as an expense
